there's something about last night's debate that i know the folks in chicago, meaning the obama re-election team, felt pretty happy about. they felt that the conversation the republicans were having, 20 minutes on earmarks, you know. another ten or 15 minutes on contraception. another long, where as much criticism was being leveled at the bush administration as it was on the obama administration. the tax to the right on immigration. if you look at it that way, i'm not sure right now the republican brand is helping itself with these debates. and especially last night, where it felt like the shift was a little bit too much to the right and away from the middle. whether that ticket is formidable -- everything changes once there is a nominee. and once the party gets fired up. but you do have to wonder at some point if the front-runner here, mitt romney, can't fire up his base, how is that going to help him in a general? i think that's a question mark. >> i know it's early to ask that question. it's not too early to find out who you have on "meet the press." >> we'll have the arizona governor, j

we've got two very different visions in this election. one, president obama grows this economy from the middle class out and mitt romney who believes we should shower rich people with tax breaks, in regulations, go back to wall street writing their rules, somehow that's going to help the economy. we tried that for eight years. it ended in a calamitous disaster. it's now time to give the middle class a real chance in this economy. i think those are the two different contrasting visions in this campaign. >> you know the obama campaign has been getting a lot of mileage over romney's personal finances, the fact he has some personal investments overseas in the cayman islands and switzerland. i guess my question to you, what relevance does this have to what the president plans to do on the economy. would you be making these kind of arguments if you had a stronger economy to run? >> absolutely we'd make these arguments. it's a great question you ask, savannah. the next president, the next four years, somebody is going to have to tackle comprehen
